Story out of Austin, Texas:
The Texas Supreme Court sided Friday with a family accused of not teaching its children anything while waiting "to be raptured,” but it didn't answer larger constitutional questions about whether home-school children must be properly taught.
Friday's 6-3 decision on technical grounds was a win for Laura and Michael McIntyre, who once educated their nine children in the family's El Paso motorcycle dealership.

Justices remanded the case to lower courts, saying its constitutional questions weren't educational policy matters. Cont.
